This antique Chinese silk embroidered peony butterfly medallion robe banner trim dates from the late 19th century during the Qing Dynasty. It is made of a coral pink color silk fabric background, with colorful raised padded satin stitch hand embroidery work, forbidden stitch Peking knot accents of a peony flower and butterfly in the center a symbol of love and affection. The medallion rounde...l remnant might have come off of a Manchu robe, or wedding ceremony wall hanging banner and has been professionally matted onto a newer silk damask weave patterned fabric border trim matting and blue silk backing with a "Peking China" paper label attached, suitable and ready for framing. The roundel medallion measures 13 inches wide. It is in good condition, with only some slight faint discoloration staining on the fabric backing (see close-up). This is truly a beautiful one of a kind piece of antique Chinese textile embroidery art!
